Overview

Easy to get to and offering a huge variety of challenges from mild to wild, West Rim is a popular trail for both veterans and newcomers to the Sand Hollow area. This trail hosts a great variety of obstacles, from tire-chirping ledges to metal-scraping rock faces, and welcomes a wide range of vehicles. Stock rigs can drive right next to the buggies, and both will find a challenging line. In addition to great obstacles, West Rim rewards users with incredible views of St. George, Warner Valley, the Arizona Strip, and the Hurricane Cliffs. Great for groups or testing out new builds, West Rim is a perfect introduction to what the Sand Mountain OHV Area offers.
